The Facts: The Cardinals are down 30-6 to start the second half of their game against the Seahawks, leaving them with little hope of securing the top seed in the NFC for the playoffs. As a result, HC Bruce Arians won't be sending Palmer back out for the second half of the game.

Diehards Line: Arians told Erin Andrews of FOX Sports that Drew Stanton will quarterback the team the rest of the way. Arians said that other starters won’t be heading to the bench, however. He told Andrews that he’s not happy with the energy or execution of his team on a day when the Seahawks have rolled right over the NFC West champs on their home field. Palmer ends the day with 12 completions on 25 attempts for 129 yards, which is good enough to make him the franchise’s new single-season leader in passing yards.
